More About Father Christmas

Blooming Boxing Day here again! I decided to revisit this quintessentially English Christmas comic, which was a holiday favorite for my sister and I as children. It will still as amusing as we remember, and I write a little about it and other nostalgic holiday reads at me BookLikes blog, Reading Rainstorm, here. Unlike the standard sicky, sweet Christmas books, this book features a curmudgeonly Santa, who faces the normal difficulties of life as he sets off for his Christmas eve deliveries.

I loved this book when I found it in a library when I was a kid. I wanted to buy it but I think it is out of print? Our library has it, and we enjoyed, although it was a little on the negative side. I got tired of Santa saying, "Blooming this. Blooming that." But the illustrations make it amazing.
